I used those tracks (well, the ones from Lego) on the Vindicator. I attached them to the chassis just in the same way as they are in the set they came in: Dozer 7685. Page 42 onwards in the pdf instructions

The chassis itself is u-shaped with plates at the bottom and 2 bricks wide walls on the sides. That's not very stable as such so i used horizontal technic beams on top of the "u" making it very sturdy sacrificing a bit of potential interior room. I think i do have several pictures of different building stages or i can make new ones, too if required.
